Answer 1

make sure your connections are all tight and your battery post and check the wire from the battery,if it has acid in it ,cut that part off ,wireing doesn't have any acid on or in it,then make sure you have the right size fuses ,that kills the power ,and your deck might not hit hard as his deck,thats your answer bud!!

Answer 2

Why would you NOT want to turn the amp up? That's what it's for. The CVX is 750 RMS, so you can turn up the amp to about 3/4 without worrying about blowing it. Could also be your box. Is it the same kind that you had the 10"s in? More info will get you more help.
